Thanks for the input everyone, I'm not really remortgaging my house for them! thats just my very bad sense of humor. The person i am looking at getting them from has been successful in breeding them - these are not wild caught. Due to this fact i am pretty sure that if Urbanpythons persist they will prove it out.
Its true there are risks importing from Africa but the risks are reduces slightly for as as they do not have to fly so far - we are in the Canary islands which is just 60 miles of the cost of Africa.
I personally love this trait and now already have a potential buyer for the male.
I will post pics for you all when the big day arrives. We also have a Banana, Clown, Caramel Albino and Pied coming to us in the next two weeks so we are very quickly growing!
thank you everyone.
